"Never Cook Bacon Naked"

Have you ever ruined your entire dinner? Burned a piece of toast? Served raw chicken to your guests? Don’t worry, we've all been there, even the most famous of chefs. Cooking can be a daunting, frustrating, and hopeless pursuit...and when you are in a pickle, it's time for a pep talk.
 

Cook’s Pep Talk: Inspiration for Mastering Your Kitchenis a compilation of hundreds of inspiring quotes from the people who have been there and done that: from famous chefs, celebrity epicureans, and food enthusiasts from all walks of life who, at one time or another, have scorched their lunch.  
 
Honest and simple, these are deep and inspiring rules to live by at the stove: “No one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.” —Julia Child; “Invest in what’s real. Clean as you go. Drink while you cook. Make it fun. It doesn’t have to be complicated. It will be what it will be.” —Gwyneth Paltrow; “A recipe has no soul. You as the cook must bring soul to the recipe.” —Thomas Keller 
 
This is the perfect gift because we all know someone who needs encouragement and a bit of inspiration. And with its small size, Cook’s Pep Talkfits perfectly in a kitchen drawer so you can reach for it next time your beef bourguignon comes from the pot looking like something from Taco Bell.
